Join Hannah Levy, Shelley de Jong and Storm Anderson for a chat about the things they wish they'd known whilst growing up that would have made it easier to be an adult.

 

This episode covers the quarter life crisis, the meaning of life (and thereby lack of) and how your feelings do matter even though nothing really matters.
